Here is the link to the instructions to the owl afghan from Lionbrand yarns. It is a pattern from Sarah Zimmerman from Repeat Crafter Me. The only thing that was different, was the yarn I used and I changed to the border a little bit. They used Vanna’s Choice yarn, but I wanted to try different colors. My crochet hook was a size H-5 mm. It might seem like the Bernat Satin is too different from the Caron Simply Soft yarn to work together, but they do! I love the softness of both yarns and their colors.

For the background yarn I used Bernat Satin Linen.
The wings and the outline of the eyes: Bernat Satin Fern
The body of the owl: Bernat Satin Soft Fern
The stomach of the owl: Caron Simply Soft off white
The eyes of the owl: Caron Simply Soft white and Caron Simply Soft black
For the beak of the owl and feet: Bernat Satin Rouge
This is the graph included in the Lions Brand site:
Ideas for other color combinations:
For a girl: Just change the body of the owl to Bernat Satin Sea Shell and Flamingo
I will post pictures and instructions of the border I made a little later.
